Midwesterners meet Palm Springs
We had high expectations for Vista del Monte and were very pleased with this vacation rental. The house delivered excellent accommodations with clean and sunny rooms and a beautiful view of the mountains that changed throughout the day. The history of the home and the furnishings made it even more special; with hummingbirds in the yard a daily delight. The positive interaction with the owner and property manager made this one of our best rental experiences. We look forward to a return trip!

Surprise ending
The home itself, during our stay, warrants a four star rating. However the customer service received after the stay overshadows this rating with two stars. The home is authentically decorated and has been updated with some 21st century comforts. It feels safer with the fenced and gated property. The landscaping is beautiful. I highly recommend heating the pool in order to enjoy early morning and evening swims. The property manager was receptive to the request for more towels, toilet paper, and linens, and overall dirty floors and dust bunnies under chairs, dressers, and sideboard. The homeowner never addressed our complaint about the BBQ (not fully operational with a missing knob). Unfortunately my experience after the stay has become very unpleasant. After we were not afforded the opportunity for a walk-thru upon check-out, my security deposit became a target; we had two children on this vacation, also it seems an offense was taken to a comment from one party to the other. After this things turned malicious, including making false accusations. This has been a sad set of circumstances for me as I pride myself in excellent communication, professionalism, honesty and an experienced VRBO renter. One example, we have been accused of tampering with all of the homeowner's locked cabinets, which is absurd. I received a 7 page letter and half of my security deposit. Every tiny offense was put under a microscope. We were even charged for a wood band that popped off from the underside of an old chair; hopefully for the next guests this was caused by a broom sweeping under it for dust bunnies. I will never know how it went so wrong, all I can do is find peace in the truths that I know and share some advice. If you choose to rent: Consider VRBO insurance. And participate in a very thorough walk-thru upon check-in and check-out. If in doubt, report any deficiencies, concerns, damages, and cleanliness concerns immediately; stop enjoying your vacation, and report immediately no matter how trivial, otherwise you too could receive a letter stating what I received, “I find it quite suspect that an onslaught of issues were documented post departure and only after you learned that I would be withholding part of your security deposit.” Lastly, stay accountable to one another in your party, even if one of you has stayed there before, you're in it together no matter how differing your styles. Trust and credibility shouldn't be taken lightly. Let's be good to one another.

Fabulous property
Amazing Spanish-influence home, meticulous property with attention to detail at every level. Home and backyard/pool area are a true paradise. He is located on a busy street which makes getting in/out a bit tricky. But worth it to enjoy this home! Owner and property manager are accessible and fantastic to deal with.

Had been wanting to stay here for years
Finally got around to booking this incredibly charming home. Had bookmarked it years ago when a popular antiques dealer had posted photos of it online. It's even more stunning in person, with such great attention to detail. The bonus being that it was by far the cleanest rental home we've stayed in and the host is very attentive and helpful. We'll be looking forward to many more visits.

Absolutely Wonderful!
An amazing place and experience. Both the inside and outside are beautiful and impeccably maintained. The outside at night is magical and relaxing - with the pool, mountains and lights. Everything was extremely clean. And the property owner and manager are the best I’ve ever experienced. Extremely attentive and responsive. A great place!!!

Gorgeous and elegant home
This home was a perfect place for five family members to shelter in place. The home is absolutely gorgeous, with an elegant Old California Spanish/Ranch feel evoked by the fantastic design, beautiful and whimsical decorations, and vintage furniture. This is not a place for those who only dig minimalist or "modern" style; no grey cabinets and white everywhere and marble counters here. This house is filled with rich wood and warm color. This is classic Southern California at its best. While stylized, it is effortless and this home also is very functional. A great kitchen, good beds and linens, and two lovely and very good bathrooms. And the backyard is wonderful. So many places to hang out and enjoy the view of the mountains, the pool, the huge amount of healthy succulents, and the abundant fruit trees, as well as enjoy games of bocce ball and grilling if so inclined. At night, with the lights on, it is pretty magical outside. We found no need to leave the property. The only downside is that the street the home is on is busy and can be noisy at times. It did not bother me but it might those who crave total silence. As a final note, the owner was lovely to deal with, as was the property manager; both very kind and accommodating.

Lovely Palm Springs home
My family and I loved every minute of our stay at this home. We very much appreciated the restoration and attention to details. The house was very clean, the owner was wonderful to work with, and we enjoyed the u-type floor plan which allowed for our family to spread out. The pool was perfect and grounds were well maintained. As previous reviewers noted, the house is on a main street which makes exiting and entering tricky -- we got used to it! Downtown is a quick 8 minute drive and there's an amazing sushi restaurant within minutes. We'd stay here again and recommend this house!

Awesome weekend getaway!
We were looking for a unique house for a weekend vacation in Palm Springs and Vista del Monte definitely fit the bill. You've probably already read many other reviews and I don't really have anything new to add but I'll just reiterate this is such a cool house, a real time machine, and the backyard with pool, bocce ball court, grill, and mature citrus trees are fantastic. Literally every plant on this property produces something edible from olive to orange trees, even grapes. We spent most of our time in the backyard. The layout of the house was also perfect, my wife and I plus our one year old stayed on one side and my mother-in-law had the queen bedroom on the other. The only downside I have is since it is an older house some of the doorways are low, I'm on the taller side at 6-6 so I had to be careful but it wasn't really an issue. Just something to keep in mind. If Vista del Monte happens to be available during your trip to Palm Springs I highly recommend staying there.

The best of the best
This is a fantastic property. It’s actually better than the pictures. Brandon the owner, created this fantastic time machine that will transport you back to the late thirties when Palm Springs was the exclusive playground of Hollywood royalty. The setting is fantastic and the owner has seen to every detail. There is no down side to this home. Tom the property manager is a total professional and greets you on arrival to show where everything is and how it works. Thank you guys. We had a fantastic stay and look forward to returning in the fall.

Beautiful, stylish property
Beautiful, tasteful home that is perfectly maintained. There are details through out that make it feel like a luxury resort: perfectly organized kitchen spaces, amazing smelling soaps, meticulously manicured outdoor spaces and details like magnets sewn into the curtain hems to keep curtains closed for a good night sleep. We had four adults (2 cars) and one dog in the space and were all happy as clams. The bocce ball court amongst the fruit trees was ::chefs kiss:: The one draw back is the busy road it is located on, making getting in/out of driveway a bit tricky but that shouldn’t stop anyone from visiting this lovely home. We will be back!

Perfectly Appointed and Remodeled SW Style Home
We were so impressed with this home. The remodel was so carefully done that it appears to be a perfectly preserved original when in fact it underwent a major refurbishment. The furniture, the tiles, the windows were all exactly in keeping with the theme. The bathrooms and TVs are all updated so you don't sacrifice any modern conveniences. There is a little road noise and the driveway is tight but this is still the best place we've stayed in Palm Springs. One more thing: the pool and backyard area are also immaculate, well-landscaped and very relaxing. Thanks to Brandon for minding every detail in this house.

Wonderful home
We enjoyed our stay. The home is clean and comfortable with terrific linens and soaps and comfortable for sitting. Great furnishings and you feel right at home. What's best of all is the backyard. It is an oasis and a place to sit and relax all afternoon. The only down side is the location. It's a busy street. A bit noisy at times and hard to get in and out. The property manager and owner were very responsive and helpful.

Good Vibes
We've stayed at a number of properties in Palm Springs - this one was my favorite. Overall it just felt like our own private oasis, and the detail in design was really fun to discover throughout our stay. We appreciated they stocked the toiletries and everything was very clean. Our top/favorite things were: -the pool, it was beautiful and was the perfect temp. - the layout of the house and backyard, perfect for our group. - the fountains, it brought a level of peace, serenity, and calm to the property. - loved the mornings and waking up there. having a cup of coffee out on the HUGE open gorgeous patio, with great furniture, facing the mountains; it truly is the perfect backdrop for what feels like your own personal sunrise. - loved the openness of the property, has a very nice indoor/outdoor flow. We will be back!!

Family Thanksgiving in Palm Springs
... this will become our ‘go to’ VRBO for our next Palm Springs visit. You step right in to a warm & cozy home away from home property. I continually walked from room to room looking at the beautiful decorated space.... like out of a magazine. The kitchen was stocked with all the right accessories to make our Thanksgiving Dinner as well. Picking fresh fruit from the trees on the property was a treat we throughly enjoyed.... homemade lemonade..... so good! The backyard was perfect from the pool, Bocce Ball court, gas grill and plenty of lawn/lounge chairs for our family. You will not be disappointed! What you see, is what you get.... beautiful.... simply beautiful.
